Rashad Becker is a composer and musician residing in Berlin. His compositions are multilayered narratives, populated by an ensemble of sonic entities, some smug, some shy, some agitators, others ready to surrender. Often there is a tragic-comical touch to his work, like a cartoon version of what could be a requiem from a dream. He is mainly active as a solo artist but finds himself in a series of permanent collaborations alongside Eli Keszler, Moritz von Oswald and as a member of the formation Moleglove. His two Traditional Music Of Notional Species on Pan were widely acclaimed as resetting the setting for contemporary avant-garde music. He has been commissioned by New York-based ensemble Alarm Will Sound, Berlin string ensemble Kaleidoskop and leading German theater company Berliner Ensemble.
